NAME¶
TEquality - Trait for adding equality testing to your object
DESCRIPTION¶
TEquality adds a number of equality testing features, including type-equality as
well as object instance equality.
REQUIRES¶
- equalTo ($left, $right)
- The "equalTo" method is expected to
return either true if its two arguments are equal (by whatever standards
your devise), or false if they are not.
PROVIDES¶
- notEqualTo ($left, $right)
- This is the inverse of "equalTo".
- isSameTypeAs ($left, $right)
- This will determine type equality, meaning it will determine if both
arguements are derived from the same type.
- isExactly ($left, $right)
- This will attempt to discern whether or not the two arguments given are
the same object. It even takes into account the possibility that the
objects might also have utilized the TPrintable trait, and so works around
that automatic stringification.
